I’m currently using T480. Thinking of upgrading to a second hand new-ish model.

Initially I was interested in ThinkPad L14 gen 2 or gen 3, but I’ve read that the wifi card is not upgradeable. I also read that newer models block installing SSD into the WWAN slot. I prefer having separate SSD for installing secondary OS.

Any recommendations of newer models with dual SODIMM slots, upgradeable wifi card, ability to add SSD to WWAN slot?

Thank you.

    I can confirm that my T14s AMD Gen 2 does have a replaceable wifi card, but all RAM is soldered since it uses LPDDR_ and sadly LPDDR5 and up will be soldered only. So you have to choose between slow replaceable RAM or fast soldered RAM.
